New RP - C.H.I.L.D(open)
(I don't know how to change the thread title so I can't change it to say (Open) T_T)
C.H.I.L.D - Combat Human Interconnected Logistical Drone. A name for a new type of combat armor developed in the year 2091, to fight against an alien threat that has destroyed most of the planet.
I came up with the premise for this RP after seeing the Anime called "Sky Girls". In that show, 3 young women pilot radically advanced power armor against a force that has decimated the human race, and 90% of the worlds men of military age are missing.
My RP is similar, except that most of the adults period, men and women, of fighting age have been eliminated. The start of this RP will be a standoff time, when both sides are building up their forces. The enemy is an alien race I'm going to call the Irial. Characters in this RP include the pilots of the armor, who are children around ages 7 to 10 who have been genetically engineered to be soldiers, specifically trained to pilot this new type of battle armor. Due to the advanced and rather rigourous training though, basics such as how to take care of themselves properly, and potty training, were skipped to allow for full immersion in military tactics, strategy, and piloting skill. To account for the massive amount of stress placed on the children, to prevent them from going rogue(or insane), the children are each assigned a caretaker, usually a noncombat man or woman, depending on preference, to act as a surrogate mommy or daddy to the pilots. These are assigned depending on military post. The RP will start on board the United Terra Naval(UTN) Carrier, Olympus.
Each of the C.H.I.L.D units are given a codename based on Gods and Goddesses(hence the carrier name Olympus), and each is installed with a computer AI system reflecting that. The AI's are modeled after the current caretaker assigned to the pilot, and will appear as such in the pilots H-HUD(Holographic Heads up Display). Each unit is also given an additional designation depending on the type of job it was designed to do, for example, C.H.I.L.D - R/LC is Reconnaissance/Light Combat. C.H.I.L.D - S is Skirmisher or Support. C.H.I.L.D - A is Assault.
Characters needed:
Pilots - I don't want everyone to be a pilot, but I'm not going to restrict it either.
Caretakers - We need as many of these as we do pilots, you can play your own caretaker if you want I suppose.
Military Personnel - We need officers and soldiers, and the head honchos of course.
Ship Personnel - The ship needs a commanding officer, navigator, etc.
Scientists and Medical Personnel - Someone had to develop the C.H.I.L.D system ^_^
Civilians
I would prefer this to be a more in-depth RP than some of the others I see on here. Not just one line at a time, but a paragraph at least. Let me know if you're interested. I'd like to hear if anyone has any additional ideas, and we can discuss maybe getting this going. Of course, since the majority of adults of combat suitable age have been killed off, other people such as Ship Personnel and such can be children as well, and in need of caretakers.
If no one has any other ideas or anything, we can just get started ^_^
